Polar Star, Akuoumaru Weapons Announced

First off we have the new 5-star weapon up for grabs. Polar Star (Bow), is described as “A pristine bow that is as sharp as the glaciers of the far north.” Its icy design seems to be inspired by the colder regions of Teyvat, perhaps Snezhnaya, and the element of Cryo in general. At Level 1, Refinement Rank 1, Polar Star has Base ATK 46, with CRIT Rate of 7.2% as its Additional Stat.

Next is the new 4-star weapon, which will be Akuoumaru (Claymore). It is described as the following: ‘The beloved sword of the legendary “Akuou.” The blade is huge and majestic, but is surprisingly easy to wield.’

As this is the first mention of the Akuou character to whom this claymore once belonged, we don’t know anything about them. But the fact that the name roughly translates to “evil” is definitely intriguing. Notably, the weapon appears to be related to the Hydro element due to its wavelike design and blue colour scheme. At Level 1, Refinement Rank 1, Akuoumaru has Base ATK 42, with ATK 9% as its Additional Stat.
